Depraved Pop Culture
Sadly much of our pop culture is an endless repetition of two themes: sex and violence in ever increasing doses. No wonder we are numb to the human suffering caused by wars around the world or the goth subculture that is thriving amongst the young. I am sick of this and don't want to watch another movie where people -or Zombies for that matter- get blown up to pieces by a sexy woman!
On a brighter note, I watched recently the "World's Fastest Indian". What a great movie! I loved how Anthony Hopkins character, Burt Munro, got to travel through parts of America and meet ordinary people. Their interactions - brief, open and unassuming - is a reminder of how great movies are built on human relationships and adventure. No-one got blown up or cut to pieces in that movie!
